The Impact of Environmental Conditions on Internal Waves and Mixing in Two Distinct Ocean Basins

摘要: Internal waves are ubiquitous in the ocean, and play a key role global overturning circulation. This thesis analyzes life cycle of internal two distinct ocean basins: Arctic Indian Oceans. Hydrographic velocity data used to study generation, propagation, dissipation these basins. In Ocean, an area mixing-driven upwelling, mooring reveal presence strong tide propagating as tidal beams above Southwest Ridge Ocean basin. These show vertical structure, their path propagation is highly dependent on mesoscale activity region. Despite this signal, however, mixing region dominated by inertial waves. On other side globe, deep water formation, shipboard from four short time series three consecutive springs Storfjorden, fjord Svalbard Archipelago, link between structure stratification profile Arctic. environmental conditions, changing greatly impact waves, subsequent turbulent theses
